Curly haircuts for more curls in Abingdon

Curly haircuts are unsurprisingly one of our most popular services with approximately one in every two appointments a curly cut. We know that curly hair is unique in its structure, appearance and required care. It’s amazing how many clients attend an appointment and through a combination of both cutting and styling how much more curl they can achieve by adopting a few simple patterns of behaviour making their curls more defined and voluminous. 

In this blog we ask our Stylists how much the right curly haircut can truly make a real difference and how it’s one of a handful of factors that can make a difference.

If you are considering something different, visit our curly hair service page. Finally, if you’re new to the salon and not sure how to get the most value from your next appointment, need a consultation or would value a conversation before booking, call or send a WhatsApp message on 01235 534705.

Helping Curls FAQ's

How can a curly haircut help?

A curly haircut is a cut with your curls firmly at the centre of everything being cut. The technique for cutting curly hair is not only different but it focuses almost entirely on your willingness to embrace your curls but enhancing them as much as possible. is designed to work with the natural movement of the hair rather than against it. Traditional haircuts, utilise a technique called ‘club cutting’ whereas many a curly haircut utilises a technique called point cutting which is much more supportive and is sensitive to curly hair and achieves a much softer overall look. This technique too enhances bounce and definition of curly hair. If you want to learn more about your curls and aren’t certain how to identify your curls, this blog post can help.

Can you achieve more curl without a curly haircut?

Yes and no. A curly haircut is arguably by some distance the most beneficial single thing which will help your curls, but it’s not the only thing that can help to improve curl definition. The advantage of proper haircare routines, styling techniques, and hydration play a crucial role in helping curls reach their full potential. It’s too worth noting that curls largely all crave moisture and there are a handful of items which can be greatly supportive towards caring for your curls aside from a haircut.

Is a curly haircut the single most important thing for curly hair?

In our opinion curly hair needs a curly haircut but it also needs the right environment to thrive. The curly cut is the first thing you need, but it won’t be helped without a diffuser and at least one curly product. Curly hair products are packed with moisture and most critically are designed specifically for curly hair. The haircut provides the foundation and your curly product(s) and diffuser allow curly locks to flourish. Without both curls won’t reach anywhere near their full potential.

Curls naturally lose moisture faster than straight hair, so whether it’s in-salon deep conditioning treatment, leave-in conditioners at home or your day-to-day curly hair products and styling, each can make a big difference to ensure your curls are defined. It’s too worth mentioning that if you can strike the right balance it can also reduce frizz and unruliness.

Here’s three things that you need for curly hair.

What else can help my curls?

Different curls can benefit from different routines and this is somewhat dependent upon your lifestyle, frequency of washing and your exposure to the elements. Many clients with curly hair can benefit from in-salon treatments namely our four step treatment which is a winner if you are struggling with dry and lifeless hair. Some clients too use a silk or satin pillowcase designed to reduce friction and thus preventing frizz and helping curls maintain their shape overnight.

Another important component of curly hair is a reduction in the use of heat styling. While occasional heat use is fine, frequent straightening or high-heat blow-drying can damage curl patterns over time but if you want to style your curly hair, here’s how. The advantage of curly products such as diffusers, curl gels, curl mousses and similar are significant.

Conclusion

A curly haircut creates the foundation for healthy and beautiful looking curly hair. It helps to achieve well-defined curls, removes excess weight and works to both shape and add natural movement with a view to supporting and elevating your curls. While a haircut helps to create foundations for your curls to thrive, you will need to establish a plan for hydration and curly hair styling to take your curls forward.

If you are feeling lost in what could work best for you, leave it to us. Our consultations work through any question you might have, logistics and we too make recommendations based upon your lifestyle and hair type.
